Kellum Harris AP English 6th 1-12-14 Dear Mrs. Roeming, So far in the book Super Freakonomics by Steven D. Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner, the topics of prostitution, sex-change operations, and gender inequality have been brought into a completely new perspective for this reader. My points of view were not only challenged, but my beliefs actually changed. I learned that some people whom society views as nasty, slutty, or ?over-reactive feminists? may be some of the smartest and most intellectual individuals in our society today.

Day of Silence Assignment # 6 Response By: Nick Chou The first Day of Silence day was held on April 20th 1996. The first Day of Silence day was found and started by students who attend the University of Virginia. The purpose of the Day of Silence was to respond to one of their class assignments of non-violent protests, a project of the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN). California isn?t the only state to participate in the Day of Silence. Many other states participate in this eventful day as well as New Zealand. Some opposing views to this day are the views towards gay and lesbian people and are still looked down upon some people in our society to this day. I learned a great amount of information about the Day of Silence. I discovered the

Identity: Race, Ethnicity, Gender, and Sexuality Chapter 5 What is Identity and How are Identities Constructed? Identity Identity ? ?how we make sense of ourselves? ? Rose How do we establish identities?? - we construct our identities through experiences, emotions connections, and rejections. An identity is a snapshot of who we are at a point in time Identities are fluid, constantly changing, shifting, becoming. Identities vary across scales, and affect each other across scales. Identities are also constructed by identifying against (defining the other and then defining ourselves as ?not that.?) Gender? Gender ? ?a culture?s assumptions about the differences between men and women: their ?characters,? the roles they play in society, what they represent.?

Javier Quinonez Professor Ribar English Composition August 29, 2013 The Basis of Your Identity Throughout the reading of finding ones identity the base of one?s true identity was questioned. The ways of an individual finding their identity was debated, and compared, with three methods, something a person is born with, influenced by culture, or expressed through the individual in the way they expose themselves to the world. Individuals cannot derive the basis of their identity from birth as it is impossible to cultivate ones identity without time and exposure. Without the tools of exposure and time individuals would not be able to differentiate themselves from each other and lose the ability to have their own true identities.
